Movies That Make You Cry

sooo I was randomly crying (I can't imagine how I'll be on hrt!) and it made me think of this question. What movies make you cry?

For me the biggest two were

Up

Metropolis (old silent movie)

but I do some other times too (It will feel more natural after transition)

I also had the habit of crying for the bad guys in kids movies when I was younger.

AAAAnyway what movies make you cry?

Hah! I cry over episodes of the Simpsons sometimes. One that really gets me sobbing is Seven Pounds.

Any movie with a lot of emotion will get me going though.

I have little kids so this can happen a few times a week or even day :)

Yes...the first few minutes of Up. OMG! Every time. Im glad I haven't seen it since I had my meds upped.

And I tear up when Nemo's mommy dies trying to protect her eggs even though you don't see it.

At the end of "Saving Private Ryan," the scene at the gravesite had me crying like a baby.

Same thing happened during the final episode of "Lord of the Rings," when all the people at the ceremony bowed to the Hobits in tribute.

I'm tearing up just thinking about that scene. Geez! ;)

I don't really cry at films really. They have to be REALLY sad and either be a true story that is sad or have something to do with suicide.

One film that got my heart a little, I didn't cry, but almost welled up was Blood diamond when a character dies.

Another film that got my heart much more intensely than Blood Diamond was Constant gardener. It's an amazing movie but I found it to be very sad. :( Again it made me well up, but possibly more so than blood diamond did.

Another film that got me was a film called Boy A. It's about a boy who in his youth befriended another boy who was being abused by his brother. This boy reacted to that by becoming somewhat 'evil' as in killing animals, finding pleasure in others pain. It took a turn and he killed a girl, Boy A was there (he calls himself Jack in the movie) and I think somewhat joined in, possibly out of fear from his friend. Who really knows. He had a tough childhood too, his mother dying from cancer and a father that didn't seem to really care about him. He'd go home beaten up and his father wouldn't even notice the black eyes. Nor his mother who was lying in bed, but then she was dying so maybe that excuses her a little. He is released from prison and changes his name to Jack his original name is Eric. Jack gets exposed when after an act of heroism. I won't give away the ending in case anyone choose to watch it, but needless to say the ending is sad. It's a gritty film, nothing very glamorous about the film. Which helps it portray a realism about it, which is what I liked about it as well as the story it self.

One movies I saw that always makes me cry alot is a holiday movie called, The Christmas Shoes.

It is based on the song by the group Newsong.

The name of the song is the same as the movie and it makes me cry to when I hear it.

I am a complete sap when it comes to movies. Here's my list...

Pan's Labyrinth

Marley & Me

Toy Story 2

Prayers For Bobby

Those are just a few of the recent ones. There's so many, I can't remember them all, but I am known to cry at Pixar films and Disney cartoons.

Omg, I CAN'T watch that movie. Cannot. It reminds me too much of when my dog died last year, and it's like...physically painful for me to even think about it.

Will Smith's a fantastic actor.

My list, short as it is. For the record, I hate this near-vendetta for crying so I try to avoid sad stuff and stick to horror flicks/comedy.

-What Dreams May Come. Every. Time. It's an incredible movie. If you haven't seen it, you should definitely give it a shot, it's...it's just beautiful.

-SLC Punk. Best crying scene I've ever seen in a movie.

-Too Won Foo. It's silly because it IS a comedy movie, but at the end, I always tear up.

-Dead Poet's Society.

-RENT

-Boondock Saints, the first time I saw it.

That's all I can think of.

I love all the Pixar movies and Sarah reminded me of TS3. OMG. That ending was just evil emotionally. But other than the shut down I don't remember anything but mostly hope and joy during Wall-E. Now in a few years when my kids are older and I think back to my youngests first Halloween and my oldest dressed as Wall-E...ah crap...ok. Yeah...he's gonna make me cry now too but for different reasons.

Schindler's List. Nothing bothered me untill the ending wth the guilt Oscar had comparing his property to being able to save more lives.

I rember crying from The Fox and Hound as a kid, but after that there's not very many movies that get me choked up.

For me, I would have to list:

Away From Her (Canadian film by Sara Polly)

Ladder 49 (the ending gets to me, every time)

Penny Serenade (Cary Grants stars in it)

West Side Story (When Maria is holding Tony's body)

      Worry refers to the thoughts, images, emotions, and actions of a negative nature in a repetitive, uncontrollable manner that results from a proactive cognitive risk analysis made to avoid or solve anticipated potential threats and their potential consequences.

      Good morning    Now @Abigail Genevieve and @Mmindy what makes you so certain I didn’t mean it to say bee itch certificate?  lol. Thanks Mindy. I was asleep when you saw this and fixed it, and yes Abigail, as a moderator I could have fixed it myself, or weren’t you pointing out the irony of that?   I use Alexis as my alarm to get up.  And I set the ringer to be two guys telling me to get up.  I was so sound asleep when they started telling me to get up that it scared me and my first thought were I had over slept.  Since I have a difficult time getting to sleep as early as I have to in order to get enough sleep I at least cut back my normal awake time to get ready.  But now I have to do my hair and get going.   enjoyed my coffee and a little time catching up   see you all later, for its hi ho hi ho it’s off to work I go.   Willow

      Republicans have long committed grave errors by emphasizing their social agenda and moral issues instead of just focusing on the economy, lowering taxes, keeping the public safe, building a strong national defense, promoting business, touting reasonable immigration policies, etc.   The country would thrive economically under Trump's tax and business policies. That's a fact. Another four years of Biden will run this country into the ground financially (including all of our 401Ks and IRAs). But the GOP continues to play right into the Dems' hands by leading with their moral crusades instead of staying the course and trusting their fiscal policies to win the day...

      Thanks.  I will look those up in the document, hopefully tomorrow.   I always look at the source on stuff like this, not what someone, particularly those adversarial, have to say.

      LGBTQ rights Project 2025 takes extreme positions against LGBTQ rights, seeking to eliminate federal protections for queer people and pursue research into conversion therapies in order to encourage gender and sexuality conformity. The policy book also lays out plans to criminalize being transgender and prohibit federal programs from supporting queer people through various policies. The project partnered with anti-LGBTQ groups the Family Policy Alliance, the Center for Family and Human Rights, and the Family Research Council. Project 2025 calls for the next secretary of Health and Human Services to “immediately put an end to the department’s foray into woke transgender activism,” which includes removing terms related to gender and sexual identity from “every federal rule, agency regulation, contract, grant, regulation, and piece of legislation that exists.” The Trump administration proposed a similar idea in 2018 that would have resulted in trans people losing protections under anti-discrimination laws. [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; The New Republic, 2/8/24] Similarly, the policy book calls for HHS to stop all research related to gender identity unless the purpose is conformity to one's sex assigned at birth. The New Republic explains: “That is, research on gender-nonconforming children and teenagers should be funded by the government, but only for the purpose of studying what will make them conform, such as denying them gender-affirming care and instead trying to change their identities through ‘counseling,’ which is a form of conversion therapy.” [The New Republic, 2/8/24] The policy book’s foreword by Kevin Roberts describes “the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children” as “pornography” that “should be outlawed,” adding, “The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned.” Roberts also says that “educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Roberts’ foreword states that “allowing parents or physicians to ‘reassign’ the sex of a minor is child abuse and must end.” Echoing ongoing right-wing attacks on trans athletes, Roberts also claims, “Bureaucrats at the Department of Justice force school districts to undermine girls’ sports and parents’ rights to satisfy transgender extremists.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; TIME magazine, 5/16/22] Dame Magazine reports that Project 2025 plans to use the Department of Justice to crack down on states that “do not charge LGBTQ people and their allies with crimes under the pretense that they are breaking federal and state laws against exposing minors to pornography.” [Dame Magazine, 8/14/23] Project 2025 also calls for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to repeat “its 2016 decision that CMS could not issue a National Coverage Determination (NCD) regarding ‘gender reassignment surgery’ for Medicare beneficiaries.” The policy book’s HHS chapter continues: “In doing so, CMS should acknowledge the growing body of evidence that such interventions are dangerous and acknowledge that there is insufficient scientific evidence to support such coverage in state plans.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Going further, Project 2025 also demands that the next GOP administration “reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military.” The policy book’s chapter on the Defense Department claims: “Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service, and the use of public monies for transgender surgeries … for servicemembers should be ended.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023]   …summaries of what’s within the rest of the document re: LGBTQ+ concerns. A person can believe their gender is fixed but incongruent with their physiology, but the authors and Trump (by his own words) just see the incongruity of an “expressed gender” that conflicts with what was/is in a person’s pants.
